CD/DVD problems in Inspiron 9400/E1705
My original cd/dvd rom started just doing random "clicks" when I tried to access what was in it, and then failed to open anything. I did the diagnostics by hitting f12 and got this: error code 0147 msg error code 2000-0147 msg unit 2: optical drive BIST opu test failed So i figured I'd order another drive. The problem is, this second drive doesn't even get recognized in the f12 boot menu... let alone windows... or linux Any ideas? new drive model is a TS-L462 (toshiba samsung) the old clicking model is a ND-6650A

contact. Physically remove the drive and inspect the connect and reinstall it
in an effort to improve the connection.
